WllC0x'S SUICIDE.
The Trouble the Dead Man Brought
About.
He Had Used the Name OF HIS Firm
10 Raise MONEY and
They Fail.

NEW York, August pa morning
paper says: Dennis o, Wilcox, at
that time president Of the Mitchell
Vance Company, manufacturers OF
gas fixtures, No. 1856 Broadway, after a
year Of Ill health, due to immense
losses in stock, grain and other specu-
latiop, shot himself 70 death
in his luxurious homo early on
the morning of April 23, 1886. He
was fiity.seven years old. He had be-
gun life as a manufacturer Of bronzs
goods in a email way in Meridsn,
where he was born, aud had developed
great ability for conducting business
Of that sort. Without leaving his in
terests in brorzs goods, he went into
the manufacture OF plated ware, and
became the seer ,tary Of the Meriden
Britannia Company, and eventually
was interested in about a deem di.
ferent manufacturing concerns, all Of
which proved very profitable. In
1871 he came to New York as the rep.
resentstive of the Britannia Company.
He loet heavily on James r. Keene's
big wheat deal. Then he went into
stocks, and the pOnic tina, followed the
failure OF Grant & Ward crippled him
badly. His losses preyed on him. De
could not slsep at night. Finally, after
passing an entire night OF wakeful-
ness, he went to the billiard room Of
his home, cast himself on q sofa, and,
with small seven shooter revolver,
sent q bullet through his brain.
Although II WIS eaid at the
time that none OF the manufacturing
companies In which he was interested
had been affected by his operations, IL
now appears that Mitchell Vance Com
pany, with a credit rating at the COM
nercial agencies Of million and more
and q capital Of 81 zoe, 900, was com.
PEELED Immediately after Ills suicide TO
raise q large sum Of money and that
the business has not since been profit.
able enough to make up this amount.
II was reported on Saturday that the
stockholders had been called together
and had decided 10 epply to have q re-
ceiver appointed. On this point, Mr..
Eigar M. Smith, ire ssrrer and mana.
ger Of the company, declined TO speak
yesterday, and Of the cause Of the com
pany's difficulties he would only say,
1--WE had large sums to raise Ia cash
Immediately following Mr.. Wilcox's
death. IL was heavy drain on the
funds Of the firm"
SIS IL intiDated then, that he he'd
used the compaay's name to raise
money!"
"No, not at all. / do not wish to
make any explanation Of the matter.
II ie not necessary. II Is enough 10
say that we had to pay out large sum
on his account"
"Wss that all the trouble the COM
pany had2"
"No. Prices have ruled very low,
for one thing, and the labor troubles
have hurt as great deal. The bust
nees has not been as profitable as II
should have been TO meet our losses"
"Will q receiver be appointed?"
IL do not know. That has not been
determined"
"Do you think the assets Of The com.
papy exceed the liabllities2'
"Yes. The company has stood at
the head Of those engaged in making
gas fxtures. Its capital is 81 200, 900. "

New York, August 22.-The Phila.

America for Americans, will again
be raised In the Presidential cam.
psign Of 1888 by q new party, come
forth like Lazarus from the tomb OF

able features Topped of, 1t still lives.
During the celebration Of the consti.
tuiionsl centennial In this city a pre-.
paratory convention will be held, at
which delegates from thirty.eight
States will be present. A call for this
convention has already been drafted
by q body known as The American
Nstional Committee composed OF
some twenty or thirty men Although
this committee has been working very
quietly, they have been for over a
year In active correspondence with
more or less prominent people through
out the country, and have laid foun.
dation for q solid party organization.
They claim among their numbers over
l,6C0, 900 persons, members Of socie-
ties whose purpose 1t Is to inculcate
purely American ideas, some Of which
are q survival OF some Of the Know
nothing organizations OF 1874
General Master Workman Powdsrly
is q prominent member OF this new
party, and has given uttersnces more
than once to the principles this new
party proposes TO stand on. These
principles all start out from one cen.
trail idea-the restriction Of immi.
grafton. The September convention
will devote itself to formulating a
scheme to effect a thorough organlz,-
ton OF Slate, county and township
committees, and will call convention
TO be held next July, probably In this
city, when candidates for President
and Vice President and State tickets
will be put in the field.

that Italy, with her great population ana
her unequal,ed position in the centre of
Southern Europe, now possesses q Cove
ernment which, if need be, dare fight;
that she has a policy for which she .WiN
risk much; and that she is i'll n temper to
recognise that if States wish to be safe,
they must, as Victor Emanuel once said,
be feared as we'll as respected. Italy, in
fact, asserts her right Of action. as II Great
Power;'and as she has 50O,O0O 'troQtS, IL
detachment Of whom recently died to'a
man fighting shoulder to shouIder' against.
overwhelming force, her assertion is Ell
fact of the utmost moment II is also u
pleasant fact for this country, which has
vast interests in the Mediterranean, and
is threatened there by two of the greatest
among the Military Powers. We can no
doubt compel France, if nerdful, to leave
Egypt alone, and Russia to abstain from
occupying C~onstantiQopIe without tile con-
sent of Europe; but the difficulty of the
task is materially lightened if Italy is our
ally. She possesses just the Army to which.
the British force maHkes a perfect spear
head, and her Fleet, even by itself, is strong
enough to prevent a Russian passage q the
Black Sea. She is, too, the only Power to
whom it is safe to entrust a right of action
on The Western Coast of the Red Sea, and
might in the not distant future join us, with.
out jealousy and without rivalry, III main-
tanning peace and commercial freedom on the
shores of Southern Asia. No Englishman
would have feared anything had Italy,
instead Of France, begun to found All
Empire in Indo-China. There is nowhere
in the world IL point at which the interests
of the two nations collide and, different
as the two peoples are, they are probably
the only two i'll Europe who 10 not bear
towards each other any secret dislike.
The new manlineSS Of Italian utterances
will draw them still closer together, and
despite the unhappy position Of English
parties, which almost fOrbidS this country
to have Il policy, an informal yet strict
alliance between Rome and London may
affect for good the whole course of history
in three quarters of the world. The tone
of SignOr CriSpi is the more welcome be-
cause, in foreign policy at all events, the
action of Italy is likely to be consistent.
Her interests can never change, and her
alliances do not depend upon sudden
changes in her Parliamentary majority.
Her population wisely leaves the guidance
of her destinies abroad to the r~eigning
dynasty and the House of Savoy, through
u period longer than our own history, has
never failed to perceive where its interest
lay, and never lacked courage i'll the hour
of trial. It is our own vacillatIOn that is
to be feared, not the Italian but as to the
Mediterranean, the nation is still fairly
consistent and firm. We must keep an
open road through that sea to Asia, and
that means that we must be strong enough .
to prevent its being closed either in the
